Moon Struck

For the Crimson diavolo, you know who you are...let it be me.

Celestial skies were brilliantly bursting that night

       my eyes were open wide

             when I tripped into you

swiftly fell to the rhythm of your heat

          sweet was the fluid dance

                   of merging hearts

like moonbeams that pranced on twilight lit seas

         i believed in you  as the promised religion

    got lost in the nirvana of your touch

         i surrendered my soul in lush tones of oleander

luscious poison, so enthralling, it hurt so good

            this caged freedom of flight clipped

                                  my wayward gypsy wings

i wantonly entrusted them to your care

 you inspired me to captivate the moon

                              in reckless abandon

i wished upon an imploding stellar star 

          that this crash commune in divine reality

[Avocations of Amber]

This is absolutely stunning, Frieda. I love the words you chose for this piece.....the images of white oleander, the gypsy wings, the stellar star......mesmerizing. This is perhaps my favorite yet. Such a vivid imagination you portray in your writings. I'm enthralled.

Such a coincidental accident, stumbling into a person beneath the moonlight only to realize the person IS the moon.

[Frieda P]

I like what you said there Tai, thanks so much.

Words words words. They make it all sound so magical :)

[Frieda P]

That's what it's about right, words? Thanks :-)

[Shivam Murari]

Indeed!

[SilentScreamingTears]

Quite interesting. The poem shows lines between what some may call 'fantasy' and 'reality' while showing that love mixes them together in a wonderful composition of life.

[Frieda P]

Probably more fantasy, thanks so much for your visit and thoughts here, much appreciated.
